Definitions

  • the invention relates to a method for manufacturing a press felt with a seam, in which method a base fabric of the press felt is woven of several machine direction and cross-machine direction yarns, and at least part of the machine direction yarns are arranged to form seam loops to the cross-machine direction connecting edges of the base fabric.
  • the seam loops can be arranged to overlap on the press section, whereby one or more seam yarns connecting the connecting ends can be arranged to the formed seam loop channel.
  • one or more batt fibre layers are fastened to the base fabric at least on its web-side surface to make the structure denser.
  • the invention also relates to a press felt.
  • the field of the invention is defined in more detail in the preambles of the independent claims.
  • Press felts are used in a press section of a paper machine so that water in the web to be dried may penetrate into them.
  • the press felt may be arranged either on one side or on both sides of the web to be dried.
  • the purpose of the press felt is after pressing to transport the water along in such a manner that it cannot re-enter the web.
  • the paper web is transported on the felt to a gap, or nip, between two rolls.
  • the structure of the felt should be made so that in the nip, water is able to transfer easily from the web to the felt.
  • Press felts comprise a base fabric that, among other things, provides the felt with the necessary water volume.
  • batt fibre is fastened at least to the web-side surface of the base fabric.
  • the base fabric is typically made by weaving in a weaving machine.
  • WO-02/053834 discloses a press felt provided with a seam. Mounting such a press felt with a seam onto a paper machine is in general easier and faster than mounting a press felt that is already in the form of a closed loop.
  • the yarns making up the seam loops are relatively thick so as to provide sufficient tensile strength for the seam and so that the handling of the loops is easy while connecting the seam.
  • the weaving points and seam loops of thick yarns of this type may cause marking on the web. Therefore, it is known to arrange a surface layer on the web-side surface of the web.
  • present surface layers are not able to prevent the marking caused by the thick yarns that form the seam loops in a desired manner, which is why it is necessary to use a large number of batt fibres.
  • a felt with a great deal of batt fibres tends to block.
  • a problem thus arises from the insufficient ability of the present surface layers to protect the part of the bottom layer comprising the seam loops so as to avoid marking.
  • the method of the invention comprises the steps of arranging the yarn density ratio of the surface layer machine direction yarns to be at least double in comparison with the yarn density of the intermediate layer machine direction yarns and the yarn density of the bottom layer machine direction yarns, using as the surface layer machine direction yarns those with an essentially smaller cross-sectional area than that of the machine direction yarns forming seam loops, and arranging for the surface layer machine direction yarns a long free run over at least five cross-machine direction yarns.
  • the yarn density ratio of the surface layer machine direction yarns is at least double in comparison with the yarn density of the intermediate layer machine direction yarns and the yarn density of the bottom layer machine direction yarns, the cross-sectional area of the surface layer machine direction yarns is smaller than that of the machine direction yarns forming seam loops, and the surface layer machine direction yarns have a long free run over at least five cross-machine direction yarns.
  • the idea of the invention is that at least two connecting ends to be connected to each other are formed on the base fabric of a single-base press felt.
  • the base fabric has at least three layers, that is, it has machine direction yarns in at least three layers. Below the surface layer the machine direction yarns run in two layers. The several yarns in the intermediate and bottom layers are arranged to form connectable seam loops to connecting ends. A higher machine direction yarn density is arranged in the surface layer than in the intermediate layer or bottom layer.
  • the ratio of the yarn densities, that is, the yarn ratio is at least 2:1:1, which means that in the surface layer, the number of machine direction yarns per unit of measure is at least double in comparison with the intermediate and bottom layers.
  • the cross-sectional area of the surface layer machine direction yarns is essentially smaller than that of the machine direction yarns forming the seam loops.
  • the surface layer machine direction yarns have a long free run over at least five cross-yarns.
  • the invention provides the advantage that due to the surface layer the base fabric of the press felt has a smooth surface which makes it possible to avoid marking in the web being dried.
  • a structure with a high machine direction yarn density it is possible to provide a smooth surface for the surface layer.
  • a batt fibre layer fastens well to a dense surface layer and is, therefore, wear-resistant.
  • the surface layer of the base fabric is smooth, the amount of needled batt fibre in the felt can be smaller. This way, it is also possible to prevent blockage of the felt.
  • the smoothness of the surface layer can also be affected by using yarns having a smaller cross-sectional area.
  • yarns with a smaller cross-sectional area usually cause less marking than thick yarns.
  • yarns forming seam loops are thick, whereby they are able to receive the machine direction forces generated during use. Seam loops made of thick yarns are also easier to handle when connecting the seam.
  • the long free run of the longitudinal yarns on the web-side surface of the surface fabric increases the contact area of the yarns, which in turn makes the surface fabric smoother and reduces marking.
  • the weave of the surface layer may be satin-like.
  • the yarn density ratio is at least 3:1:1, that is, the machine direction yarn density of the surface layer is at least triple in comparison with the intermediate and bottom layers.
  • the yarn density ratio is at least 4:1:1, that is, the machine direction yarn density of the surface layer is at least fourfold in comparison with the intermediate and bottom layers.
  • the idea of an embodiment is that the machine direction yarns of the surface layer turn at the connecting end to a direction opposite to their direction of travel and do not form a connectable seam loop at the connecting end.
  • the surface layer machine direction yarns When the surface layer machine direction yarns are turned backward, they need not be cut after weaving.
  • a selvage is formed at the turning point, due to which the structure does not unravel easily.
  • the idea of an embodiment is that the machine direction yarns of the surface layer turn at the connecting end to a direction opposite to their direction of travel and form connectable seam loops at the connecting end.
  • the surface layer of the base fabric may then have an auxiliary seam which may improve the strength of the seam. Further, it is possible to reduce the marking caused by the seam by using an auxiliary seam.
  • the idea of an embodiment is that the surface layer machine direction yarns turn at the connecting end to a direction opposite to their direction of travel in such a manner that the first section of the yarns towards the connecting end and the second section away from the connecting end run parallel on the same plane.
  • the crossing of the first section running toward the connecting end and the crossing of the second section away from the connecting end with the cross-yarns take place at different points, whereby the side-by-side machine direction yarns endeavour to cover the weaving point where the longitudinal yarn runs under the cross-yarn.
  • the surface layer machine direction yarns then settle tightly together and form a large contact area on the web-side surface.
  • the surface layer machine direction yarns are at the connecting end turned around at least one cross-directional edge yarn to a direction opposite to their direction of travel.
  • An edge yarn is a yarn separate from the rest of the structure of the base fabric and its structure and material may differ from the other cross-yarns of the weave.
  • the edge yarn may be left in the base fabric or alternatively removed after weaving before the fastening of the batt fibre layer.
  • the use of an edge yarn facilitates the turning of the surface layer machine direction yarns.
  • the edge yarn is left in the base fabric and its cross-sectional area, structure, and material is selected to make the area denser between the seam loop channel and the basic weave.
  • the edge yarn may be selected so that batt fibres can also be made to fasten well for instance by needling beside the seam channel.
  • the edge yarn may be made of a folded monofilament or multifilament.
  • the idea of an embodiment is that the surface layer machine direction yarns are turned at the edge of the seam loop channel so that they do not extend over the seam loop channel. The turning point is thus at the boundary of the seam loop channel and basic weave.
  • the idea of an embodiment is that the surface layer machine direction yarns are turned at the seam loop channel as seen from the machine direction. The surface yarns then protect the seam area and also facilitate the fastening of batt fibre.
  • the surface layer machine direction yarns extend at the first connecting end further than the midpoint of the seam loops and thus form a seam flap protecting the seam loop channel. Further the surface layer machine direction yarns are at the second connecting end turned before the midpoint of the seam loops and in relation to the length of the seam flap.
  • the seam flap provides a good fastening base for the batt fibre layer and prevents the marking caused by the seam loops.
  • the idea of an embodiment is that the surface layer machine direction yarns are extended endlessly over the seam during weaving.
  • the surface layer machine direction yarns are cut after the batt fibre has been fastened so that a seam flap may form.
  • the idea of an embodiment is that the cross-yarns of the base fabric have one yarn system.
  • the use of one cross-yarn system enhances production as the warp yarn selection can be kept small.
  • the cross-yarns of the base fabric have two yarn systems. By utilising two cross-yarn systems, it is possible to manufacture many variations of base fabrics by altering longitudinal yarns and cross-yarns.
  • the idea of an embodiment is that the ratio of the diameter of the yarns forming the seam loops in comparison with the surface layer machine direction yarns is at least 1.1-fold.
  • the idea of an embodiment is that the ratio of the diameter of the yarns forming the seam loops in comparison with the surface layer machine direction yarns is at least 1.6-fold.
  • the yarns forming the seam loops are monofilaments having an essentially round cross-section and a diameter of 0.35 to 0.50 mm.
  • the surface layer machine direction yarn is a monofilament or a folded monofilament.
  • the cross-section of the surface layer machine direction yarn is round and its diameter is 0.1 to 0.35 mm.
  • the cross-sectional diameter of the yarns forming the seam loops is 0.35 mm and the cross-sectional diameter of the surface layer machine direction yarns is 0.2 mm.
  • the cross-section of the surface layer machine direction yarn is flat, for instance oval, elliptical, rectangular, or of some other form with a smaller dimension in the direction of thickness than in the direction of width of the base fabric.
  • cross-yarns are monofilaments or folded monofilaments.
  • Figure 1 shows a press felt in the shape of a closed loop that can be run on a paper machine press section in the machine direction MD and that has a cross-machine direction CMD width.
  • the press felt further has a surface R on the side of the web being dried and a roll surface T to be arranged against the rolls of the press section.
  • the press felt comprises a one-base base fabric 1 and one or more batt fibre layers 2 fastened at least on the web-side surface R of the base fabric 1.
  • the batt fibre layer 2 may also be fastened to the side of the roll surface T.
  • the base fabric 1 has at least one cross-machine direction CMD seam area 3 that connects a first connecting end 4 and a second connecting end 5 of the base fabric 1.
  • the seam area 3 has a predefined width in machine direction MD.
  • the seam area comprises at least the connecting ends with their seam loops and one or more seam yarns.
  • Figure 1 shows a possible structure of the base fabric 1.
  • the base fabric 1 has on the web-side surface R a surface layer A with several machine direction MD yarns, that is, longitudinal yarns 7.
  • the longitudinal yarns 7 bind to cross-yarns 8 at weaving (or binding) points 9.
  • the weave of the base fabric 1 is selected in such a manner that the weaving points 9 are at relatively long distances from each other, whereby the longitudinal yarns 7 of the surface layer A have a long free run on the web-side R surface.
  • the longitudinal yarns 7 of the surface layer may run over five or more cross-yarns 8 and under one cross-yarn, that is, the longitudinal yarns 7 have a six-shaft weave structure. An as large a section as possible of the longitudinal yarn 7 then runs on the web-side surface R, which aids in providing a smooth surface.
  • the base fabric further has machine direction MD yarns, that is, yarns 10a, 10b that form seam loops and are arranged to run on top of each other on different layers B and C.
  • the yarns 10a run in the intermediate layer B and the yarns 10b run in the bottom layer C.
  • the overlapping yarns 10 form seam loops 12 that may be arranged to interlace with corresponding other seam loops to form a seam channel 13 into which one or more seam yarns can be arranged.
  • the yarns 10 forming seam loops 12 are selected to be sufficiently strong to endure the machine direction stresses directed to the press felt in the press section and to allow easy handling when connecting the seam.
  • the longitudinal yarns 7 of the surface layer A are selected to be thinner than the yarns 10a and 10b, because they need not participate in receiving the machine direction MD loads.
  • the longitudinal yarns 7 form on the web-side surface R of the base fabric 1 a smooth layer, whereby marking may be avoided.
  • Figure 2 also shows how the longitudinal yarn 7 of the surface layer A may be turned at the connecting end 5 at a turning point 15 to a direction E opposite to the direction of travel D.
  • the connecting end 5 may have one or more edge yarns 16 around which the longitudinal yarn 7 turns and continues in the return direction E beside the yarn section running in the forward direction D.
  • the longitudinal yarn 7 forms a loop, but it is not intended for connection and may be at a distance from the seam channel 13.
  • edge yarn 16 may be left in place in the base fabric 1. Even if the edge yarn 16 was removed, the thus formed free loops are still not used for connecting. Thus, the twisting of the edge yarns 16 at the turning point 15 does not matter. Further, it may be possible to arrange at the connecting end 5 two or more turning points 15 at different distances from the seam channel 13, whereby the longitudinal yarns 7 of the surface layer A are arranged to turn at two or more points.
  • Figure 3 shows the structure of the connecting end 5 in cross-machine direction CMD and in a highly simplified manner.
  • the figure shows that the turning point 15 may be at a distance L1 from the outermost part of the connecting end.
  • Figure 4 shows the connecting end 5 of the base fabric 1 from the web-side surface and in a highly simplified manner.
  • Figure 5 shows how the longitudinal yarns 7 running in the surface layer A turn at the turning point 15 and run parallel and on the same level toward the connecting end 5 and away from the connecting end. The longitudinal yarns 7 then have a long run on the web-side surface R.
  • Figures 5 to 10 show from the machine direction MD some possible cross-yarn 8 runs and binding with the longitudinal yarns 7 of the surface layer A and the yarns 10a, 10b forming the seam loops.
  • Figure 5 shows a 6-shaft weave in which the yarn ratio of the machine direction yarns 7 of the surface layer A to the machine direction yarns 10a, 10b of the intermediate layer B and bottom layer C, respectively, is 3:1, that is, for one loop yarn pair, the surface layer A has three machine direction yarns 7.

Each cross-yarn 8 in the weave has a similar run pattern.
  • Figure 6 shows a 6-shaft weave in which the yarn ratio of the machine direction yarns 7 of the surface layer A to the machine direction yarns 10a, 10b of the intermediate layer B and bottom layer C, respectively, is 2:1, that is, for one loop yarn pair, the surface layer A has two machine direction yarns 7.
  • the base fabric 1 of Figure 6 has one cross-machine direction CMD yarn system, in which case each cross-yarn 8 weaves with the machine direction yarns 7, 10a, 10b of all yarn layers A, B, and C in the order defined by the weave pattern repeat. Each cross-yarn 8 in the weave has a similar run pattern.

  • the machine direction yarns 7 of the surface layer A are arranged in groups of three yarns.
  • the base fabric 1 has two cross-machine direction CMD yarn systems.

  • the second cross-yarns 8b only crisscross in the bottom layer C.
  • this structure can also be implemented so that it only has one cross-machine direction CMD yarn system.
  • Figure 9 shows a weave in which the surface layer A comprises four machine direction yarns 7 per one loop yarn pair 10a, 10b. The yarn ratios of the machine direction yarns are then 4:1:1 calculated from the web-side R surface. The machine direction yarns 7 of the surface layer A are arranged into groups of four yarns.

  • Figures 12 to 18 show seams and seam areas between the connecting ends 4 and 5 as highly simplified representations.
  • the turning points 15a, 15b of the machine direction yarns 7 of the surface layer A are at each connecting end 4 and 5 right at the edge of the seam loop channel, whereby the yarns 7 do not extend on top of the actual seam area.
  • the turning points 15a, 15b of the machine direction yarns 7 of the surface layer A are at the seam loop channel, whereby the yarns 7 of each connecting end 4 and 5 extend on top of the seam area.
  • the turning point 15a of the machine direction yarns 7 of the surface layer A of the first connecting end 4 is at a distance L2 from the midpoint of the seam channel and, thus, extends until the basic weave of the second connecting end 5 and forms a seam flap 17 that protects the seam area.
  • the length of the seam flap 17 can naturally be dimensioned as required to be shorter or longer.
  • the turning point 15b of the yarns 7 of the second connecting end 5 is at a corresponding distance L2 from the midpoint of the seam channel toward the basic weave.
  • Figure 18 shows a seam in which the machine direction yarns 7 of the surface layer A are woven unbroken over the seam area. After weaving the yarns 7 are cut at a desired cutting point 18.
  • the cutting point 18 may be at the seam channel, for instance, or located so that a seam flap is formed. Further, it is possible to use two cutting points 18a, 18b so that the yarns 7 are cut at the edge of the seam area and, thus, do not extend over the seam area.
  • the used yarns may be described as follows.
  • the machine direction yarns 7 of the surface layer A may be monofilaments. In some cases, it is also possible to use folded mono- or multifilament yarns.
  • the cross-sectional shape of the machine direction yarns 7 of the surface layer A may be round and their diameter 0.1 to 0.35 mm.

  • the machine direction yarns 10a, 10b forming the seam loops 12 may be round in cross-section. Their diameter may be 0.35 to 0.50 mm. However, the yarns 10a, 10b are always thicker than the machine direction yarns 7 of the surface layer.
  • the yarns 10a, 10b may be monofilaments.
  • the cross-yarns 8 may be monofilaments or folded monofilaments.
  • the cross-sectional profile of the cross-yarns may be round or flat or they may have any cross-sectional profile.
  • the base fabric of the invention should have an as smooth web-side surface as possible. To achieve this, it is possible to select for the machine direction yarns of the surface layer a smaller cross-sectional area than for the yarns form ing the seam loops. The yarn density of the surface layer then becomes higher. Further, it is possible to select a weave in which the machine direction yarns of the surface layer have a long run on the web-side surface. In addition, the weaving points of the yarns having a long run may be positioned so that they settle as far away as possible from the weaving points of adjacent yarns. The long runs may then due to weaving tension, high yarn density, and heat treatment push onto the weaving points and cover them at least partly. The use of such a satin or satinet weave may produce a smooth surface for the base fabric.
  • the surface layer, intermediate layer, and bottom layer of the base fabric are woven together using the cross-yarns in the base fabric, that is, in the section between the seam areas which are located at the ends.
  • the layers are then woven using a large number of weaving points, and the base fabric is, thus, a stable one-base structure.
